Crunchy Coleslaw Recipe

"This crunchy cabbage salad is so easy to put together that we often have it for spur-of-the-moment picnics or when unexpected company stops by," remarks Julie Vavroch of Montezuma, Iowa. It gets its nutty flavor from almonds.

"I've only made this twice, and the first time was a success! I went to make it this morning for a family reunion, and it was a disaster. For some reason, the oil and seasoning mix would not blend (it was lumpy and sat on the surface) and I believe I burned it. The only difference is I went from an electric stove, to gas. It will be a while before I try to make this again. Big disappointment."

"This has become our pitch-in favorite! Any flavor of ramen noodle seasoning works. I always make extra so I have some to take to work for lunch the next day. So simple and easy. I love making this stuff."
